Murphy had an early Christmas present today when a lovely new coat arrived from those very nice people at Equafleece.
It has sleeves in it to help keep him dry and warm when we've been out on a long wet walk and it has a zip along the back t make it easier to get on. I think he looks really smart.

Our turn
So, after we had left the madness of the seal car park behind us, we headed off to our usual beach for a walk and found ..... nobody!! We had the entire beach (and car park) to ourselves which was fantastic.
Dad was on duty with the camera this time, so here are a few shots of us from the 300+ he managed to take in about an hour.

Donna Nook
Yesterday we had a day out and went to Donna Nook which is just a few miles up the coast from our regular beach haunt. It's a special place and one that you have to get up very early for when visiting - we were in the car for 7am! The reason is because Donna Nook is the place where hundreds of grey seals come every November to have their pups ...
in fact there are so many of them they even have their own traffic signs.
It was very cold that early in the morning so Murphy and I put our coats on to stay in the car while Mum and Dad went out with their cameras ... yes Mum remembered to bring hers and here are some of her efforts.
These two are clearly not early risers!
Basking in the early morning sunshine
I'm calling this 'doing a Welshie'
She's not too bad at this my Mum.
By the time we left at 11am the car park was heaving with all the light weight people who didn't get up early to see the seals like us.

Saturday
Mum took us to Thoresby for our walk this morning as she wanted to go to a food fair that was on there. It was really foggy, so much so that we could hardly see the hall.
Spooky!

Appointment with the clippers
Aunty Debbie came to our house today and she attacked me with the clippers. I felt quite light headed after she had finished and there was a rather large pile of fur on the floor. I must admit my ears look and feel much better - Dad keeps stroking them saying they feel so silky. I fear I have a few more sessions on the grooming table to come.

Dad's day out
On Saturday Dad had a day out with Auntie Debbie and Uncle Dave at a shoot. Dad took his camera and came home tired but with some great photographs.
Fergus and Inca were on duty - they've both got their working heads on here
Auntie Debbie doesn't like having her photo taken, but Uncle Dave doesn't mind so much.

Somewhere new
Mum had to go to Nottingham yesterday so we had our walk at Wollaton Hall which is somewhere we've never been before.
It is a very impressive and old (1580 something) house on a hill overlooking a huge park with a lake and loads of squirrels which Mum said was a bit of a sensory overload for me!
So there we are having a nice walk and we came across this guy
I don't know much about deer but they do seem to be everywhere at the moment. Or is it that we seem to be having more walks in deer parks lately?
